<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To preferentially produce benzenes and C2 compounds (ethane, ethylene or the like). <P>SOLUTION: A metallosilicate (methane direct reforming catalyst 3) supporting a catalytic metal and a hydrogen storage substance 4 are contacted with methane to produce a lower hydrocarbon and an aromatic compound. In performing a catalytic reaction, a mixture of the methane direct reforming catalyst 3 and the hydrogen storage substance 4 may be packed into a reaction tube 2 and methane is catalytically reacted. The similar effect is obtained by alternately packing layers of the methane direct reforming catalyst 3 and layers of the hydrogen storage substance 4 into a reaction tube 2 and catalytically reacting methane. A metal titanium, titanium carbide, etc., may be exemplified as the hydrogen storage substance 4. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
